Your Bill sounds like a good guy, with a tender heart for his animals and his dear wifey Palo...

Man, my computer sure is acting up today...keeps freezing up, and giving me a message that some illegal act is being performed, and it throws me offline

The first time I ever got that sort of message about some 'illegal' act being performed, I was a computer newbie, and completely ignorant of computer terminology.....so when I got that message for the first time, I got so scared, I called my son at work, and was crying, convinced that soon the police would be at my door to arrest me, and I wanted my son to tell me what I did that was wrong...well of course, he and his fellow employees had a good laugh over that one...ah, I am such a dunderhead at times...

hi westy
you are right
he is just saying right now next time he will take camp stove with little pot for hot soup or bullion, sandwich, and bivi sack, just in case he gets stuck
he says at least he can have hot bowl of soup and sandwich and can have warmth
he just said ''if you got stuck out there you really could be in a lot of trouble
there is nothing out there''
he said he was 2000 feet higher than Tucson
you two are thinking along same lines
Love, Palo

Me, too! The first time I saw that message, I thought I'd be refused service! I read later that there was a lot of complaining about the strongly worded, unnecessary messages.

For days and days, my firewall didn't show me any hacking activity. Tonight already, there have been two red warnings flash. I'm safe, but it's odd they started again.

rofl andysmom your post made me giggle
I remember my reaction when I first got message I did something illegal
I didn't think the police would be at door
but I was so surprised I had committed a criminal act
without having the slightest idea what I did
Love, Palo

You can still see the white head of the eagle sitting in her nest. I wonder if there's some light from the camera? Thought you might like to look in since you missed looking today.

A bivi sack is a little bitty waterproof tent that slips over a sleeping bag....even without the bag it will get you out of the wind and wet....

Its soooo nice, to know that I am not the only one who thought they did something illegal on the computer....

Westy, I dont know how to do any of those things on the computer...but I will mention my problems to my son, when he comes down for Easter, and he will solve the problem...when he was living here, after he returned from his around the world trip, he took my whole computer apart and cleaned it for me...he showed me the inside guts of the computer...it was pretty interesting...but I got scared that he would not be able to put it back together again...

Yes, could be. The narrative on the site says it's 135 feet up, though. Anyway, I'm glad there's a bit of light so we can watch - voyeurs!
